Preset 7 is really nice and until Carl starts giving out smoochies and huggles, I will still think of him as very tough and rugged.

Carl my buddy!

I'm so sad, I generated a whole set of textures from this filter (which is a lot more awesome then the presets hint at) and accidentally deleted my presets smile:cry: Since I don't have enough stuff made up yet I'm gonna have to regenerate a whole new batch. Here's one from the original set:



SO awesome!

But anyhow, I just thought I'd swing in and ask if you might be interested in updating this filter (make a new version- this one is pretty good as is).

Some things I think it could really benefit from:

1) A bit finer details on the diffuse. Maybe a little bit sharper of b/w noise and less of the odd looking yellow stuff.

2) Some sort of hue control: I'd love to be able to add some color by means other than the light environment.

3) Sharpen up the details on the normal, it's a wee bit too smooth. Just a little bit though, this texture looks pretty awesome fairly clean.

Don't think I'm sounding bossy, this is all just stuff I'd love to see, no pressure at all. I think you've got a possible HU on your hands though!

Oh and if you pretty fix up caste concrete and make some lone bullet holes I'll weep with joy!

Till next time homesnap!

Hi Kg, Happy to work on it with what you want, will start fiddling tonight, I have done Bullet hole, but thought eula would be fixed quicker also not 100% happy with it, if you would like to make suggestions for the direction you would like it to go here is a sample pic, the B/G is transparent the life preserver isn't really there if you know what I mean smile:)

Haha you're the man Carl!

That's fantastic! If you really lookin' for nitpicks, I'd suggest you softened the fade to black near the center and added a similar dark/light pattern overlay you did for this http://www.filterforge.com/filters/2259.html. In my opinion, that would make this great looking metal bullet hole even better.

And NP about the EULA, I'm cool with you keeping the filter till EULA is suitable. If they end up taking too long though I'd love to contact you privately and see what terms you want to arrange. I just want to use the filters for the game, I wouldn't be selling anything so that avoids the whole controversial stuff.

Can't thank ya enough man!

Also: Give this http://www.filterforge.com/filters/3647.html snippet a whirl, see if it makes things look more realistic. I've used real ambient occlusion in modeling and it makes an amazing difference in realism.

Ok the new " KG Special Edition " is on it way, the filter now has almost infinite new designs - colour control - variety of textures. [ All old designs are still available ]. Here are 3 new possibles from hitting random 3 times smile:)

cool stuff, carl smile:) i like all of them, including the originals and except the last. the last is a bit too dark. kind of an interesting pattern, though.
If wishes were horses... there'd be a whole lot of horse crap to clean up!

HOT DOG! That looks awesome Carl! I can't wait to get started doing some big render jobs with this! With the extra control, I think I'm going to actually use this for both teams styles! Originally I was going to use the concrete molding for blue team and Mortex, another very nice filter (http://www.filterforge.com/filters/1715.html) for the red team. But now I'm thinking that I can get the differentiation in styles and colors that I need while still keeping the visual style similar.

Have you already submitted the filter Carl? I hope you got some awesome new presets, this has success written all over it! I can't wait till Monday when I can give it a whirl! I'll post some pics when I have them in-engine!

Thanks Craig smile:)


I was going to do update of filter but decided to submit as new filter because of the massive changes and it's a monster filter for controls and variety so hopefully it won't drive you mad smile:D , so new one in library que - this old one has also gone into the que with colour control and got rid of yellow marks unless you choose it, just in case the other one drives you mad smile:D

You should give this one some more flattering presets and better cover image. The image I posted above was stock from this filter, your presets don't really show the true abilities!

I was tempted to do that, but in the update rules it specifies you can't drasticly change the existing presets - the default is boring, maybe I'll just be bad and changes them smile;) smile:)
